Brew #186: Arthurstown Brewing Co. Hook Baltic Porter
ABV: 8%
Served: Off the shelf
Aroma: Rich malt, chocolate, red berries
Pour: Dark brown with a fizzing froth that dissipates
Taste: Deep, dark and rich first wash with some malty sweetness floating around but it’s big, rich, dark fruitiness overall. Gives way to a black coffee kick and a silky mouthfeel finish. Roast nutty bite at the end with christmas pudding fruits on the aftertaste.
Notes: 750ml bottle, malt - Arthurstown Ale Malted Barley/Munich/Chocolate/Crystal/Special W/Roast Barley Biscuit Malt, hops - Northern Brewer/Hallertau Hersbrucker.
